The Alice Project

Ellen Collington was a participant in our ‘Creative Use of Stitches Class’ in Guelph. She drew her inspiration from Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and Salvador Dali. As well as these two creators, she also combined the learnings of three classes into this project. You will see photoprinting on fabric, a variety of stitches and the construction of an accordion book. On top of all these variables, her house was undergoing extensive renovation, her workspace was nonexistent and her stash unavailable.

The rabbits are fantastic. So is the tortoise. Those are my two favorite, probably because I once had rabbits and at the same time a roommate with turtles. What a fantastic challenge with gorgeous results. It is really breathtaking. Thanks for sharing your student’s work. It is always spectacular.
